You are considering how to react to

Mr Powell's letter of 10 November to Philip Mawer in the Home Office. When you submit on this I should be grateful if you could take account of a query that the Secretary of State has raised on the first sentence of that letter: do we have evidence that the UK is losing out to Germany as well as to the other countries mentioned in this area?
